Creative Shots

Our next meeting is on Wednesday 21st, we are viewing "In the Rain" images and discussing our topic for September which is Long Exposure/Time Lapse. Could be interesting or impossible, we will see. Richie is sounding keen to have another Light Painting trip if you have been inspired by the images fr...

Sorry folks but my little narrative to go with my shots seems to have become somewhat disjointed. Colin

Trying not to duplicate but here are some of mine.

Really good Richie, I'm still working to eliminate some of the extraneous matter from mine but am hopeful. Cheers Colin

Sorry Ian, I was lined up to come but now have family coming for the week so will have to decline. Cheers Colin

Hi Richie,
Just back from the soggy north and connectivity, so can confirm that I will be attending on Tuesday. Colin

This week is billed as a technical evening and we have put Phil and Joe head to head to demonstrate how they would improve images that could do with a little help. We have given them the same three images each and left them to do some magic and then tell us how and why and what they have done. Since...

Hi, Trevor and I are heading out early but will be happy to meet up at 9am. That's when the coffee shop opens
Colin

Hi all, this is an early reminder that we have a guest speaker, Anne Miles, coming to us in June. Could everyone make a special effort to be there, not just so we look good but because she is really good.
More later
Colin

As I said to Trevor, I was either too early or too late, but it definitely looked too cold. Well done, great images. Colin

Hi, seems to be a problem attaching more than one item so here is the chairmans report again, i'll bring the agenda with me next week,
cheers
Colin

For the AGM part of the January meeting I am attaching the minutes from last year, a short chairman's report and an agenda for the meeting. We aim to keep this short unless anyone has issues to raise in which case we will give them due attention. For the rest of the evening we are viewing images tak...

Hi all, Don't forget we are meeting tomorrow, so that you then have a clear run up to Christmas to do your shopping etc. We will be seeing the results of the 2018 Chinese Whispers and looking at a reflection of images shown throughout the year, providing of course you have got them into dropbox or o...

This weeks meeting we will be viewing images from the Cambridge Botanical Gardens and any Diptych / Triptych compilations we have managed to produce. If you have none of the above please bring something else to share if you would like. Any painting with light images from October will be shown at the...

Hi all, It's almost too hot to do this, but this is just a reminder that at Wednesday's meeting we will be reviewing the result of our Macro night in June. Don't forget to bring the failures as well as the successes, someone may be able to explain what could have been done differently. There should ...

This Wednesday's meeting is a practical session concentrating on Macro/Close up photography. NO lectures or tutorials, just a let's get straight in with whatever equipment/skills we have got and see where it leads us. No previous experience required. You will need to bring as much relevant kit as yo...

So Trevor asked which two I sold. Always a surprise and I believe no help in deciding what sort of image to display!! I will try and attach so you can ponder the question.

This month is our AGM which we hope to conduct with the minimum of effort whilst still ensuring that everyone who wishes to do so, has their say. I have attached my review of last year, minutes of last year's AGM and the agenda for this year's AGM. (all in one document). When the business is done Tr...

Thanks for letting us know Robert and have a good Christmas your self. A reminder to everyone else to bring a few nibbles, enough to share around but not enough to feed everyone!!! Whispers and Retrospective should all be done but there is time to offer a few suggestions for the next programme, some...

Great pis Trev, I like them all but probably put the three window frames first. I like the mood. You can get a full critique by presenting them to the February meeting !! lol Colin

For those who like a reminder, we are displaying our images of Insects in printed form please. Please note we will accept a pretty wide definition of insects to include other sundry bugs and beasties. In addition Robert is going to share some basic mathematical ideas behind some processing topics. H...

I'm with Joe, We have not identified a need for a club printer of any size and can see no obvious need for this one and as Joe points out the running costs would be prohibitive even if someone found a home for it. If a member would like it, fair enough, but I would not support it becoming a club ass...

Tonight we will be looking at images under the theme of "Through the window" and from the Dedham evening last month. If you have neither, please bring something else to share. We will also discuss the Group space element of our Slice exhibition, so please bring your thoughts. See you tonight Colin.

Thanks Trevor, but how has a double granddad got time for this???? I like pattern 2 the best but the practice one reminds me of the invisible man series, before your time of course. Colin

Just a reminder that tonight's meeting is a photoshoot in Dedham. There is nothing happening at the Hythe!!
Having been absent myself from the last meeting I am assured that it was agreed to meet in the Main Car Park at 6.30pm and radiate out from there. Colin
